Here!
Here is the Stephen King book which had the scariest advance publicity. This was the one that 'spent years in a drawer before the author had the courage to publish it'. This was the one that 'scared the King himself'. Reading...
Pros: Classic King nail-biter Cons: You may never look at cats the same way
There's just so much to choose from when it comes to a Stephen King write-off. Should I do one of the great movies like 'The Green Mile'? Should I blast 'Cujo', a somewhat cheesy movie that made me laugh instead of quiver in fear, mainly due to my...
Pros: King, still scares the heck out of me, Cons: paperback books don't last.
Around the time that Misery was in the theaters, my uncle bought me my first Stephen King book. We were on vacation, and he bought me this book for the ride home. No big deal, right? Let's just say, that was the first book that kept me from...
Pros: will scare you if you love horror! Cons: a baby and cat die in this book.

Pros: Stephen King is an excellent writer. Cons: Those who have seen the movie might not read the book, but they need to!
I am reviewing the hardback book of Pet Sematary. Epinions is showing the audio cassette version, but when I click for more information about the book I am given that it is available in Audio Cassette (Analog Audio Cassette) • CD-ROM • Hardcover...

Pet SemataryStephen KingPublished 1983If someone were to look back at Stephen King’s career to see where he developed his strongpoints as a writer, one would have to stop and take a long look at Pet ...
Pros: A spooky little gem of a horror story. Be very, very afraid. Cons: Don't read it to the kids at bedtime.
Once upon a time, Stephen King used to write tight, well-constructed novels into which you sunk in total absorption, turning page after page, unaware of the horror creeping up on you until it had you helpless in its fangs. Then, alas, King started to ...
Pros: Well written, cool ending Cons: Weak climax, boring, not scary or suspenseful
Pet Sematary was the second book I read by Stephen King. I will read more of his books in the future that are probably going to be The Stand and Carrie. Pet Sematary got great reviews and was said to be very scary. Hoping to be ...
Pros: Great story telling, philosophy Cons: Too long for its plot, too much pointless filler
Stephen King is well known for his chilling style of writing, his creepy tales, and the sexuality in his books. This is true in pretty much all of his books, even the ones that are a far cry from horror novels. So, when I purchased Pet Sematary, I ...
Pros: The ending Cons: Most of the stuff before the ending
Maybe Im making a mistake, reviewing a book (which is not really my forte), not to mention one that I havent looked at in four or five years. But after seeing all the four and five-star reviews for this book, I had to throw my two cents in....
Pros: A real break from King's usual themes Cons: Ask someone else..I'm still twitching..
Let me start by saying that Stephen King was disgusted at himself for writing this book, even after all the research and cross-referencing and notes that he put forth in the name of this story that was inspired by an actual pet cemetery kept up by...
Pros: King at his best, scaring you witless Cons: Being scared witless might not be so much fun for some

Pros: dark and frightening look at death and it's importance in life Cons: none
Pet sematary is a story about death. Death of a pet, death of a lover, death of a child, death of a friend. It is about realizing that it can't be taken back.
this is the novel that scared the author himself, it's scary to face death and your...
